The Book of Samurai: The Fundamental Teachings
Description
The first installment in a multi-volume guide on the lost arts of the
samurai—presented in the English language for the very first time Antony
Cummins and Yoshie Minami have brought the teachings of the famed samurai
school Natori-Ryu back to life through The Book of Samurai series. This first
installment is a translation of two secret scrolls and establishes the
Fundamental Teachings of a samurai student, revealing the basic traditions of
Natori-Ryu. The first scroll, Heika Jodan, contains 290 lessons that define
the baseline for samurai during times of peace—a time which is considered as
preparation for war. It focuses each student on expanding their own ability
and conduct, giving them the mind-set needed for any battles to come. The
second scroll, Ippei Yoko, moves the student onto the field of battle. It
provides them with an understanding of what is expected during a campaign of
war and the necessary guidance for samurai who are to take up arms for the
first time. These first two Natori-Ryu documents are an in-depth and detailed
account of the practicality of samurai warfare, opening up the lost world of
these Japanese warriors to all modern readers. Read more
